Katakuri and King: Parallels You Missed

[@HotBoySpicy]

4:38 Apologies for the three seconds of black screen here. That was a dumb oversight on my part. Hope it didn't bother any of you too much!

[@RandomSage]

didnt even notice it lol

[@chibk]

It was no problem cuz i didnt even notice 💀 😂

[@onin77]

Please don't take it so hardly on yourself, shit like this happens and it wasn't dumb at all. It sure doesn't take away from the exceptional analysis and video overall. And for me as well, I was so focused on your narrative that I haven't even noticed until I came back and clicked on that time stamp and still, it didn't take anything away from my experience of watching it! Take care and keep the great work man!

[@chibk]

It was only three seconds

[@GonUFO]

vid is so goat anyway we aint even need the apology

[@Ronin11111111]

Never too much Katakuri analysis.

[@Shookey]

True

[@Melissa-tw2gp]

The story of the Big Mom family always makes me so sad. It’s complex and messed up and I would totally read a story of how they pick up the pieces after Mom’s death and find themselves under Katakuri’s leadership. Great video!

[@eggward7203]

i'm guessing that's the next cover story

[@ryanmitindonga5770]

Now a I understand why king has no conqueror haki because he has no will

[@okashira073]

haki as a whole IS will, he does have will and pretty high too its just that katakuri's will is significantly superior

[@kingmanga8575]

@@okashira073 that’s not necessarily true. Having conq doesn’t mean ur will is stronger than non conq users. People r born with conq it’s not something people get when their will reaches a certain lvl.

[@Man-oc6bj]

I absolutely love this analysis. I never truly saw Katakuri as a villain and this solidifies everything. He was an "ANTAGONIST". Not a villain

[@SparktehFox]

People are far too quick to shut out Katakuri and call him weak despite what actually happened. Excellent video!

[@yaboigamerdouji7573]

I could never get enough of these. It’s so insightful and makes you reevaluate every character

[@digchiz8174]

At first glance before pressing in this video i thought it was going to be some simple parallels but woah what a prestigious well thought out video, you are definetly one of the new generations greatest one piece content creators for sure

[@HotBoySpicy]

Much more OP content just like this over on my channel!

[@ZincFrog]

Wonderful video, characters who wear masks and why are some of my favorite things about One Piece to talk about, so this video was a treat. Katakuri hiding away his individuality and closing off his heart with a mask, not showing weakness, and taking on a role that should belong to another. Maybe I'm over thinking this, though a lot of that sounds incredibly similar to parts of Kiku's story. The youngest of the group, nor is she the leader, yet was the only one who stepped up to deal with the traitor situation. A situation that should have been the responsibility of the leader of the group, but as was said about Wano's culture in chapter 1047 "disagreeing with a decision a woman took all of her courage to make does nothing but shame her." If the others don't have the heart to do cut down their former friend, well, at least Kiku is used to closing her's off. Fate handed her a ill-fitting role and left no other options but to become a samurai. Luffy picked up on this within hours of meeting her. He was so impressed by Kiku early in the arc, not because she was an emotionless samurai, but because she reminded him of Shanks. Ignoring the jeers of a crowd and opting to shame the sumo guy, rather than needlessly kill him. Wano's culture failed Kiku, made her believe she couldn't be who she wanted to be. It's this lie which Kiku was telling herself that Usopp confronts her about. A perfect foil to Kuina, driven home by how Zoro interacts with Kiku early in the arc. Kuina believed her being born a girl meant Zoro would surpass her one day, not because of effort, but because of a circumstance of birth, a biological excuse. King told Zoro that he is "biologically incapable of defeating him."

5:03 nah, it's sheer fatigue, we all know this

[@firefistace6407]

oda's depth never ceases to amaze me, thank you for enlightining us of these nuances

[@charliemeade8642]

Your essays are fire and always expose new layers on characters i thought i understood rather well. Real talent, keep it up. (More OP and ATLA)

[@mrbubbles6468]

King does follow a man with values different to his own. He like Kaido inflicts that very pain on others to try and make sure someone stronfer can come along. They never stopped trying to make Joy Boy happen. They just realised it wasn’t going to be them. And in Kaido’s defeat he did change the world, he brought Joy Boy back.

[@scrublord3376]

your videos always have something that i never noticed whether it be symbolism or dualities etc... i love it

[@mood5467]

These are some of the best narrative analyses i have found on youtube of one piece. Well done

[@kingmanga8575]

If u haven’t check out mr. Morj. He’s kind of a joke in the community when it comes to his theories but his analysis videos r second to none.

[@DunklerZebralord]

Your analysis videos are extremely engaging and well written and you make points I haven’t seen anyone else make. Extremely top tier content!!

[@mrarcade2504]

I actually realized this parallel when watching the anime but completely missed it when reading the manga back then

[@kingmanga8575]

The anime did a muuuuuch better job at fleshing king out as a character.

[@ElPsySneak]

Amazing video. The right hands are truly the best pirates in one piece

[@MrGoodman174]

It's been 10 years since you blew Chris ''cottage''. Are you still in prison?

[@izanagi6628]

an underrated aspect of one piece is that more than 1000 characters and each one could be an mc of their own series

[@articus812]

These videos are genuinely the best ONE PIECE analysis I’ve seen.

[@josh5227]

Man I just discovered your channel yesterday but I've already watched so many of your one piece videos. This is without a doubt the best one piece youtube content I've ever seen. Kudos to you and keep up the awesome work 👍

[@GioHimonPro]

I am so glad i found you when you did the sanji and Naruto/Sasuke analysis back then! You recent Videos are so insightful! This is growing to be one of my favourite channels!

[@arataarter8146]

I hope one day Katakuri becomes a Strawhat Grand Fleet commander in some way. The guy does deserve a spot to fight for a more free world. King shows how different he is compared to a fellow yonkou commander that did not subjugate himself.

[@lipeplaymega]

I feel like katakuri will be what white beard was to roger but for luffy

[@arataarter8146]

@@lipeplaymega even if not... I really want him to have his own freedom to seek his own dreams and goals. Not just protect his family and help Luffy, but to become a legendary figure that will leave a mark and reputation in history.

[@okashira073]

like this video says "INDIVIDUALITY" he doesnt have to be a loyal follower, he can just simply be a friend/ally or do his own thing

[@arataarter8146]

@@okashira073 of course. But... I REALLY want to see him be part of the Final War which I pretty sure can bet affects the freedom of everyone, the chance to break apart the oppressive and vast control the World Government has had for +800 years. I believe it will be necessary to be part of the force Luffy will lead (accidentally or knowingly LMAO). But after then yeah. To be his own person to achieve or get what he wants.

[@cyruscrompton8221]

I'm surprised how good your one piece videos are, normally I feel like I can notice a lot of these things but you REALLY give a new perspective on the series, like after watching this it makes SO much sense now why katakuri had conq but king doesn't (or wasn't shown to have conq) keep up the good work man

[@Yeorgo]

Dude I love your videos they are so good

[@wpower7435]

King and Katakuri are the best looking designs among the 1st yonko commanders in my opinion cool and very intimidating I believe King wants a better world instead of a bad one King betrayed himself like you said by assisting Kaido become a tyrant in other words Kaido was the wrong man he sided with I truly believe he was nice guy before Kaido met him. I Really hope we see him again for the final war I want to know more about Lunarians I imagine all races of the one piece standing up against the corrupted leaders for the final war that would be great. It is tragic to think he's the only one left among them but now that Kaido is defeated King will definitely or probably realize Luffy is Joyboy chapter 1049 kinda of links the point I'm making. Kaido is explaining King who Joyboy is by saying ''if he's the same man you're waiting for King then I think I know who Joyboy is. He's the man who shows up to beat ME int the future in that case I suppose we'll never see him'' King may realize his mistake going forward for the series because as we speak he's now in the hands of the WG basically going to the suffering he endured without he's mask is even worse he hided his true identity from the WG for a long time the likelihood of him getting tortured or killed (which I REALLY hope he doesn't get killed by the corrupted leaders of WG) is possible that is why I want to see him again in the series with all that said great analysis you did on both characters

Do not read if you are anime only, kinda manga spoiler if you read between the lines: One thing that is interesting me is I still don't know if it was admiration that made katakuri give up, that it may have been that he saw into the future and saw what would happen if he killed luffy and basicly just noped
